How to Control 12V and 9V Motors Run Back and Forward

Question from customer:
I want to run a 12V dc winch that uses a car battery for power. I also want to run a small 9 volt dc motor. And small motor is powered by small calculation power supply. I wonder if there the remote controller which can be used for those two motors which need two different voltages to supply to rotate in forward and reverse direction.
Answer:
If you want to remote control 2 motors’ back and forward, you need 4CH normally open/closed contact remote control kit (S4C-DC12+C-4). Each relay can only activate motor run at one direction, so 4 relays can realize 2 motors to run two directions respectively. This 4CH RF wireless remote control switch operates in toggle, momentary, latched and toggle + momentary control mode (set the mode as you like freely). You can also use it to complete four operations at the same time. But For example, turn the light on, open the door or control other dc/ac electrical devices in the meantime. It is applied for light remote control, motor remote control, garage door remote control, gate remote control, etc.
4 channel remote control
Here is the wiring diagram. A&B terminals is normally closed, B&C terminals is normally open. We usually connect motors to normally open terminals. Motor 1 is connected to B&C terminals of relay 1 and relay 2. Motor 2 is wired to B&C terminals of relay 3 and relay 4. And supply power to the receiver. Owing to no current output for motors from receiver, so 2 motors must be supplied power with different voltage individually as your requirement. Motor 1 is supplied DC 12V. Motor 2 is supplied DC9V.
application circuit
Our suggestion is momentary mode for controlling two motors’ back and forward rotation. After switching on power, press and hold button 1, motor 1 turns in positive direction; press and hold button 2, motor 1 turns in reverse direction. Press and hold button 3, motor 2 turns in positive direction; press and hold button 4, motor 2 turns in reverse direction. If you release button, motor will stop immediately.
Note: Momentary mode: Press and hold button →On; Release button →Off

Remote Control Kit and PIR Make a Alarm System

One of our customers wants to customize an alarm system. He presented his own idea to us. He needs two receivers on the PCB, using transistor in the receiver instead of relay to reduce the consumption because he wants low consumption version when using that alarm. The PCB should be as small as possible. The alarm working current will be about 270ma. When press button one on the keyfob, receiver 2 is to open the switch to turn on receiver 1. Receiver 2 is to close the normally open contact(turn on the alarm) when receiver 2 receives a signal from the PIR and closed the alarm after 2 minutes.
Press button 1 again to open the contact (SILENCE THE ALARM)
Press button 2 to momentarily close the normally open contact (Test Alarm).
Requirement: Receiver must be acceptable for the first signal only no matter how many signals are sent during alarming time. It will receive signal again after reopening.
(Picture 1: original picture)
Paul's-ALARM-DESIGN-
As for his requirement, we retrofit one kind of our products. We use DC voltage output 1 channel remote controlled switch unit (S1X-DC12 & C-2 ) and PIR. We also provide infrared probe to him. Relay on the receiver has changed for transistor.
1_04
Here is the wiring picture.
Please pay attention to the picture he sent to us (original picture above), we make a little change, there are 4 point of wire junction, from the top down, we named them 1,2,3,4. We contact point 2 and 3 inside, so he doesn’t need to contact another wire to point 3 like the original picture. Picture 2 and 3 are material object connection diagram.
(Picture 2)

(Picture 3)
detail of connection
When remote control unit begins to work, the receiver will learn codes from transmitter and PIR.
PS: the receiver can only learn Transmitter and PIR one by one. Do not learn them simultaneously.

vibrator inside
The first step is deleting and learning codes:
1         Delete all stored codes:
Press and hold the button of the receiver for about 2 seconds until LED light is off, then release the button, all stored codes have been deleted successfully. At this time, the transmitter cannot control the receiver.
2         Learning remote controls:
Press the learning button of the receiver, LED light is on, the receiver is in the status of LEARNING.
Press any button of remote control within 7 seconds, if LED light flashes twice slowly then off, it means LEARNING is successful. If LED light is off after 7 seconds, it means LEARNING is failed and the receiver quits the status of LEARNING.
The second step is operation:
The receiver can learn several remote controls of different codes.
Press button A: The receiver vibrates once.
Press button B: The receiver vibrates twice.
Press button C: The receiver vibrates three times.
Press button D: The receiver vibrates four times.
When you press the button on transmitter, the receiver will receive the wireless signal and vibrate. Then the dog can feel the vibration.
